Judging by the photos, the metal rail entered the lower front part of the car, passed through the entire cabin, and exited through the glass of the trunk lid. The driver miraculously survived, only suffering a wound to one leg. The Facebook community dtp.kiev.ua clarifies that the accident occurred on Akademika Zabolotnoho Street near the shopping mall "Atmosfera".
Whether the car can be restored is unknown. But even if repair is possible, it will certainly be expensive.
It is worth noting that metal crash barriers, contrary to their primary functions, have long proven to be a dangerous structure. They often cause even more serious damage to vehicles, and in some cases even lead to fatalities. For this reason, some developed countries have already begun installing flexible barriers – in particular, those made of plastic.
